At the beginning of 2008 I left Google to start fresh, working with a tiny and brilliant startup team at FriendFeed. The last two-and-a-half years have resulted in so many good times, the opportunity to design for a site and community I love, and the privilege to work with yet another team of world-class designers, PMs and engineers after the Facebook acquisition. But Spring has sprung and I've decided that it's time for the next adventure. FriendFeed has taught me that entrepreneurship is what lifts my heart and so I plan to go in to private practice developing some ideas of my own while pitching in with the startup community here and there. I couldn't be more excited. But before all that I'm taking my first real Summer vacation in 16 years!
